Synopsis
Excerpt from Legal Reform: An Address to the Graduating Class of the Law School of the University of Albany, Delivered March 23, 1855
One of the most interesting things in life is the spec tacle of a class of young men, just finishing their pre paratory studies, and about to enter upon the world. The competition of the class gone, the excitement of studies in common over, they are passing from the con dition of scholars to that of actors. Our imagination follows them into the future. We see them embark, now for the first time, upon the open sea; where they are often tossed by tempests, and often becalmed, where some are drifted ashore, others foundered, and a few ride prosperously, with favoring winds and swelling sails, into the desired haven.
Such is the spectacle presented to us to-night. A seminary of learning, founded by the zeal and foresight of eminent men, who as judges and lawyers have illustrated the advantages of study, and whose love of knowledge has prompted them to take upon themselves the office of professors and teachers, here dismisses its graduating class, with the first public exercises it has ever yet held on such an occasion.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a historical analysis of the legal profession and legal codes, focusing on introducing comprehensive reforms. It argues that the legal profession suffers from shortcomings in professional ethics, manners, and education. The author suggests improvements for each area, including extending ethical considerations beyond clients to include all trial participants, improving courtroom decorum, and enhancing legal education by creating dedicated professional schools. The book also delves into the issue of legal codes, arguing for the implementation of written comprehensive codes to replace the complex and heterogeneous system of laws inherited from England and Dutch settlers. The author discusses the advantages of such a code, including increased accessibility, clarity, and ease of enforcement. This book offers valuable insights for legal practitioners, scholars, and policymakers seeking to improve the legal profession and legal systems.
